They built the walls, but they’re not working as planned.
Soldiers managed to destroy walls in San Diego. Smugglers are doing the same.
Now Border Patrol is asking contractors for ways to “leapfrog current technology to dramatically improve efficacy,” Arizona Public Media reports.
Could paint make it easier to see people breaching walls? What about sensors? They’re among the questions being barnstormed to make the walls more effective.
By the end of the year, the U.S. government has a goal of building 450 miles of walls. So far, it has built about 182 miles.
But the walls are being breached almost as quickly as they’re being built.
Border Patrol declined to comment.
